The Attack Begins

Michael’s POV

The sharp sounds of gunfire coming from outside shattered the heavy silence of the mansion.

I was in Fernando’s room, leaning against the window, lost in thought.

The whole Damian incident had left a sour taste in my mouth.

Every inch of my body ached from that scuffle, and my mind was still racing from the things he said.

How much did he know? How far had my enemies gotten inside our walls without us noticing?

Then—Bang!

My head snapped up. The sound of a gunshot, unmistakable and close.

Another crack followed it, then a volley. Not far. No mistaking it now.

I instinctively turned to look at Fernando, slightly hoping that hearing such sounds might be enough to wake hum up, but I had been wrong.

I heard another round of shots being fired and I knew this wasn’t some random shootout. It was an attack.

"Not again" I muttered under my breath.

I was out of the room before I even registered moving.

My heart was pounding against my ribs as my feet came alive and ran down t

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Through the Crosshairs

    Fernando’s POV Michael had always been the calm one. The anchor. The man with iron veins and a voice like a soothing balm. But in this moment, crouched on the floor of the living room with Henry wrapped tightly in his arms, I saw something else flicker behind his eyes. It was fear. Not for himself. But for the boy trembling against his chest. Henry’s small hands clutched Michael’s shirt with a desperation that cut through me sharper than the sniper’s bullet had cut through the quiet. Henry was silent now, but I could still hear the echo of his scream ringing in my ears. My heart slammed against my ribs like a caged beast. I remained crouched low, my back pressed against the cold wall, my body hidden just beside the window. I hadn’t dared to move since that last shot was fired. “Shh,” Michael murmured to Henry, his voice low and warm. “It’s okay, champ. I’ve got you. You’re safe now. I won’t let anything happen to you.” Henry hiccupped. “But—there was a gun… someone sho

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   A Silence Too Loud

    Michael’s POV The sun wasn’t even up when Nick left the apartment. Now, it was nearly noon, and I was pacing the living room with my phone pressed to my ear for the seventh time that morning. "Come on, Nick… pick up." But all I got was his voicemail. Again. Frustration burned in my chest, just a notch below the dull ache still blooming along my upper arm where Archer’s bullet had grazed me last night. I wasn’t even supposed to be involved in any of that. None of us were. Especially not Nick. But now—thanks to Archer’s ambush, Fernando’s big mouth, and a goddamn misunderstanding—I had to sit here and wonder what Nick must be thinking. What he must be feeling. And the worst part? I couldn’t even reach him to explain. I let out a low groan and ran a hand through my tangled hair, stopping in the middle of the room. On the couch, Henry was curled up in his favourite throw blanket, laughing at a loud cartoon with wide, animated eyes and clumsy talking animals. He didn’t know

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   What Still Bleeds

    Archer’s POV The sun was merciless this morning. It spilled across the ocean, too bright, too clean—like it was trying to wash away everything I did last night. But there’s no light bright enough to erase blood. Or guilt. Especially not when the man I was in love with was now walking up my steps. Fernando Ramirez. He was a murderer, lover, and goddamn force of nature. I had seen the glint in his eyes even from the balcony. That fire, restrained but dangerous. He wasn’t just here for a visit. His presence crackled in the air, stirring up the ghosts that still haunted this house. And me. I turned away from the railing before the door opened. I couldn’t let him see me like this. Not pale, not trembling, not with my eyes still sore and the painkillers making my head swim. Fernando hated weakness. I moved fast, shoving the pill bottle under a stack of papers, dragging on a black linen shirt, fingers fumbling slightly at the buttons. My reflection in the hallway mirror loo

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Rage and Restraint

    Fernando’s POV The sun had risen like an unwanted truth. Its golden light crept slowly over the horizon, shining at the edges of Archer’s private beach house and it looked imposing just standing there. The sea behind it glistened with a annoying kind of calmness, a shimmering reflection of a world that did not belong to me. I stood with one shoe in the sand, staring at that damn house like it had whispered something cruel to me in a dream. The air was cool, salted, and tense with everything I didn’t want to face but I had to because if it wasn’t unchecked, it might happen again. Behind me, tires crunched on gravel and doors slammed as Marlo, Emilio, Mortis, and the rest of my men exited the vehicles. We came in a convoy of black, bulletproof cars like armored wolves circling a rabbit’s den. Our arrival had been deliberate, loud, and unmissable, the kind I was accustomed to instead of being calm. If I was going to show up at Archer's door, I wasn't going to do it quietly.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   A Tide Brings Vengeance

    Archer’s POV The waves were restless today. It was not the kind that soothed or whispered you into calm—their crashing roared against the jagged rocks like fists, like threats. The bright morning sun painted a golden slash across the ocean, reflecting light into the wide glass windows of my beach house. But even that light made me uneasy. I hadn’t slept. I actually couldn’t sleep no matter how hard I had tried all night. And not because I wasn’t tired. No, I was bone-tired, worn out, and frayed, but my mind wouldn't shut off. It spun like a carousel, flashing memories I couldn’t scrub from my brain no matter how many glasses of scotch I drank. Michael’s face, twisted in panic as the bullet collided with his flesh. The bruises on his skin when I pushed things too far. Suddenly, I started to get all up in my head into what was going to happen anytime now. I could almost visualise the look in Fernando’s eyes when he realized what I had done. No. There was no time to rest e

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   A Mistake I Didn’t Mean to Make

    Michael’s POV I wasn’t asleep.I hadn’t slept all night, if I was being honest.I laid there on the bed, my eyes closed, heart pulsing in the quiet dark like a slow drum. Every breath Fernando took from the floor beside me echoed in my chest. Shallow, soft inhales. A little uneven, like maybe he hadn’t slept either. And I knew, I knew it was because of what I said.That it was a mistake.The words kept replaying in my head, over and over, as if they were etched into the ceiling. My voice, distant and detached. “It was a mistake.”Fernando hadn’t said anything after Ashley caught us in the kitchen, mouths still tingling from the kiss. His eyes had just… changed, hardened. And without a word, he grabbed a pillow and laid it down on the floor, as far from me as he could get. No argument. No drama.Just silence.And it was that silence that screamed the loudest.So I lay there, pretending to sleep, pretending not to hear the soft sounds of his shifting, or the quiet sighs that I knew
